I thought about admitting that i&amp;#x27;m only referencing the author&amp;#x27;s blog posts was a bit &amp;quot;narrow&amp;quot;, but it&amp;#x27;s also probably the best source for authoritative information on the subject. Literally &amp;quot;from the horses mouth&amp;quot;. There are the arxiv papers and some other reports (that all tend to link back to either the blog or arxiv) as well. Like you, I don&amp;#x27;t have a strong physics background, so find the published papers a challenging read. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1604.03449v1.pdf&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1604.03449/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
